Data Sheet No. PD 10035-E Series PVG612 Microelectronic Power IC Single Pole, Normally Open, 0-60V, 1.0A AC/ 2.0 A DC General Description Features The PVG612 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-pole, normally open solid-state relay that can replace Bounce-free operation electromechanical relays in many applications. It util- High load current capacity izes International Rectifiers proprietary HEXFET High off-state resistance power MOSFET as the output switch, driven by an Linear AC/DC operation integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel 4,000 V I/O Isolation RMS construction. The output switch is controlled by ra- Solid-State reliability diation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED) UL recognized which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic generator. ESD Tolerance: 4000V Human Body Model These units exceed the performance capabilities of electromechanical relays in operating life, sensitiv- 500V Machine Model ity, stability of on-resistance, miniaturization, insen- sitivity to magnetic fields and ruggedess. The com- pact PVG612 is particularly suited for isolated switch- ing of high currents from 12 to 48 Volt AC or DC power sources. Series PVG612 Relays are packaged in a 6-pin, molded DIP package with either through-hole or sur- face mount (gull-wing) terminals. It is available in standard plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel. Please refer to Part Identification information opposite.
